The Pittsburgh Steelers will have a new general manager sometime within the next month or two. But that doesn’t mean their former general manager will be out of the building. Kevin Colbert has said that he is stepping down from the role of general manager; he has, however, very specifically avoided saying that he is actually leaving the game, a sentiment reiterated by owner Art Rooney II recently.
Appearing on SiriusXM Radio last week, when he was asked about the search for a new general manager, it was pointed out to him that Colbert would not say he was retiring.
